A selected clone from an IL-2-dependent human T-cell line was persistently propagated in the presence of phorbol esters with the ability to activate protein kinase C (PKC), such as 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) or phorbol-12,13-dibutylate (PDBu). Thus, a TPA(PDBu)-dependent T-cell line, designated TPA-Mat, was established from IL-2-dependent T cells. The TPA-dependency of TPA-Mat was not lost during cultivation for more than a year in the presence of TPA, and TPA-Mat cells still showed IL-2-dependent growth. However, the TPA (PDBu)-dependent growth of TPA-Mat did not seem to be mediated by an autocrine mechanism of IL-2 or by any other growth factor production, because these factors were not detected in TPA-Mat cell supernatants. Therefore, the phorbol esters substituted for IL-2 and may be directly involved in transduction of growth signals in TPA-Mat cells. Although activity of PKC was down-regulated, messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) of the PKC beta-gene was detected in TPA-Mat cells cultured with PDBu. Furthermore, the growth of TPA-Mat cells was stimulated not only by phorbol esters but also by nonphorbol ester tumor promoters with the ability to activate PKC. These observations suggest that the sustained activation of PKC by the phorbol esters could induce continuous growth of the IL-2-dependent TPA-Mat cells. 相似文献

2-Mercaptoethanol acts as a potentiating factor of interleukin-2-dependent lymphocyte proliferation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
An interleukin-2 (IL-2) dependent cell line which could be grown continuously with crude concanavalin A-stimulated rat or mouse spleen cell culture supernatant could not survive for over 48 hr in the culture medium supplemented with partially purified or recombinant IL-2. The cell growth was restored by adding another factor obtained from the same crude culture supernatant. This potentiating activity which was physicochemically inseparable from serum albumin was also obtained from the culture medium containing 2-mercaptoethanol (2-ME) and incubated at 37 C for 24 hr without the spleen cells. By further experiments, it was demonstrated that 2-ME itself had the potentiating activity on the IL-2-dependent proliferation of this cell line and cysteine mediated the activity of 2-ME. The cells could not enter S-phase in the absence of 2-ME even in the presence of IL-2. 相似文献

Gangliosides have been shown to suppress human and murine lymphocyte proliferative responses in vitro. We tested the suppressive effects of gangliosides on the proliferation of autoreactive lymphoid cells obtained from Lewis rats with experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE). Exogenous rat brain gangliosides inhibited both antigen- and mitogen-induced proliferation by as much as 79 and 93%, respectively. Gangliosides similarly inhibited the antigen-induced proliferation of a myelin basic protein (MBP)-reactive T-cell line which is able to passively induce EAE. Suppression was greatest when gangliosides were added at the initiation of culture, and was not abrogated by supraoptimal antigen concentration. Interleukin 2 (IL-2) activity in culture supernatants was not diminished by the addition of gangliosides. Gangliosides did not inhibit the IL-2-induced proliferation of a murine IL-2-dependent cell line, CTLL-20, unless the IL-2 was first preincubated with gangliosides before the addition of CTLL-20. Preincubation of CTLL-20 with gangliosides resulted in no inhibition of the subsequent responses to IL-2. Exogenous gangliosides did not decrease the binding of a monoclonal antibody directed against the rat cell surface IL-2 receptor. Addition of exogenous IL-2 to ganglioside-suppressed cultures had no effect or only partially restored the proliferative responses. Therefore, gangliosides were shown to inhibit the proliferation of autoreactive lymphoid cells without affecting IL-2 production or IL-2 receptor expression. 相似文献

Agents that mimic antigen receptor signaling inhibit proliferation of cloned murine T lymphocytes induced by IL-2 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We have shown previously that stimulation of cloned murine T lymphocytes via the TCR inhibits their responsiveness to rIL-2. Signaling via the TCR is believed to result in a variety of biochemical events that include a rise in intracellular free calcium and activation (translocation) of protein kinase C. These two signals also can be generated by calcium ionophores, such as ionomycin, and by activators of protein kinase C, such as PMA. We report here that treatment of cloned murine T lymphocytes with PMA, ionomycin, or the combination led to a dose-dependent inhibition of IL-2-dependent proliferation but did not inhibit lymphokine secretion. Concentrations of PMA and ionomycin that maximally inhibited proliferation stimulated maximal lymphokine secretion and increased mitochondrial activity as assessed by measurement of cleavage of 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium-bromide. Furthermore, PMA, ionomycin, the combination, or immobilized anti-CD3 mAb added after 12 to 16 h of culture with IL-2 could inhibit proliferation. These results demonstrate that PMA and ionomycin mimic stimulation of the TCR by high concentrations of immobilized anti-TCR mAb in that proliferation is inhibited and lymphokine secretion is induced. In addition, PMA or ionomycin could independently inhibit proliferation of some cells. These findings suggest that alternative mechanisms exist to regulate proliferation. Either increased levels of intracellular calcium or the physiologic events corresponding to those induced by PMA can inhibit IL-2-dependent replication of T lymphocytes. 相似文献

Evidence for IL-2 independent proliferation in human T cells 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Recently, the SRC-like non-receptor protein tyrosine kinase p56-LCK has been shown to physically associate with the interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2-R) complex and to undergo rapid elevations in its tyrosine kinase activity upon stimulation of T lymphocytes with IL-2. The functional significance of p56-LCK kinase activation for IL-2-mediated lymphocyte responses, however, has never been directly assessed. Using gene transfer approaches, we have achieved markedly elevated levels of p56-LCK kinase activity in the IL-2-dependent cytolytic T-cell line CTLL-2 and the helper line HT-2. CTLL-2 and HT-2 cells that were stably transfected with expression plasmids encoding either the normal human p56-LCK or a constitutively active version of the mouse p56-LCK kinase (LCK[Y505]) contained striking elevations in the levels of tyrosine phosphorylation on several proteins (34-36, 50-60, 62-68, 77-78, 104-110 kDa), as determined by immunoblot analysis using anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies. CTLL-2 and HT-2 LCK- and LCK(Y505F)-transfected cells remained dependent on IL-2 for their growth and survival in culture despite the findings that (i) IL-2 specifically stimulated elevations in the activity of the endogenous p56-LCK in untransfected CTLL-2 cells without affecting the activities of the other SRC-like kinases in these cells (p59-FYN, p62-YES) and that (ii) IL-2-mediated regulation of p56-LCK correlated with IL-2-driven proliferation of these T cells. Specifically, no elevation in the proliferation (DNA synthesis) or growth of these T cells was found at any of the concentrations of IL-2 examined (0.01-25 U/ml), relative to untransfected and control transfected cells. Furthermore, when cultured in the absence of IL-2, transfected T cells whose relative levels of p56-LCK activity were elevated by approximately 20-50-fold died with the same kinetics as control cells and underwent apoptosis, as defined by uptake of trypan blue dye and DNA fragmentation assays, respectively. Taken together, these data indicate that while IL-2 can up-regulate the enzymatic activity of p56-LCK, elevated levels of p56-LCK tyrosine kinase activity are insufficient to stimulate IL-2-mediated pathways required for T-cell growth and survival. These findings thus imply the existence of other signal-transducing molecules, besides p56-LCK, that physically participate in IL-2R complexes and that are necessary for initiation of the biochemical events ultimately responsible for IL-2's pleiotropic actions on lymphocytes. 相似文献

We have studied the effects of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) on in vitro human T-cell activation induced by crosslinking of the CD3-Ti complex with the monoclonal anti-CD3 antibodies OKT3 and UCHT-1. PGE2 (greater than or equal to 3 X 10(-9) M) when added simultaneously with anti-CD3 to cultures of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), significantly suppressed, in a dose-dependent way, T-cell proliferation (P less than 0.002). However, when T cells were first preactivated with OKT3 for 3 days, subsequent proliferation driven by recombinant interleukin 2 (IL-2) was not inhibited by addition of PGE2. This indicates that PGE2 affects the activation step resulting from crosslinking of CD3-Ti, but not the IL-2-driven proliferative phase. Other manifestations of T-cell activation were therefore examined. Both IL-2 production and the expression of receptors for IL-2 (as detected with the anti-Tac monoclonal antibody) were inhibited by PGE2. The addition of purified interleukin 1 (IL-1) or recombinant IL-2 to the cultures did not reverse the inhibiting effect of PGE2 on IL-2-receptor expression. PGE2, added at the time of culture initiation, also inhibited T-cell proliferation in cultures which were supplemented with exogenous IL-1 or IL-2. Proof for a direct effect of PGE2 on T cells was obtained in experiments in which monocyte-depleted T cells were stimulated, in the presence of IL-1, with solid-phase-bound anti-CD3 antibody. Proliferation of T cells in this system is accessory cell independent and still was strongly inhibited by PGE2. Finally, preincubation of PBMC with PGE2 (3 X 10(-6) M) for 48 hr did not result in the generation of suppressor cells for anti-CD3-induced T-cell proliferation or for IL-2 production. Our results demonstrate that PGE2 has a direct inhibitory effect on an early step of T-cell activation, resulting in decreased IL-2 production, decreased IL-2-receptor expression, decreased responsiveness to exogenous IL-2, and decreased proliferation. However, PGE2 does not affect IL-2-driven proliferation of activated T cells. The inhibitory effect on T-cell activation is not mediated through suppressor T cells, nor through inhibition of accessory cell function. 相似文献

Interleukin 1 secretion is not required for human macrophage support of T-cell proliferation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Interleukin 1 (IL-1) is a soluble factor secreted by stimulated monocytes (Mo) and animal macrophages (Mx). We have previously demonstrated that human Mo cultured in vitro for 1-6 days transform to Mx, and retain their ability to support concanavalin A (Con A)-driven T-cell proliferation. We have also shown that, paradoxically, these Mx do not secrete IL-1, when stimulated by endotoxin (LPS). In this study we examined two alternative hypotheses: T cells plus mitogen induce Mx IL-1 production, and human Mx deliver a second signal to T cells via a non-IL-1 mechanism. IL-1 was assayed in a mouse CD-1 thymocyte system without concanavalin A. Mo/Mx were cultured with T cells at low (2 X 10(4)/200 microliters) or high (1 X 10(5)/200 microliters) concentrations for 2 or 4 days, in the presence of Con A. Six hours prior to quantitation of proliferation, 50 microliters of supernatant was removed and assayed for IL-1. As expected both Mo and Mx enhanced T-cell proliferation eight- to tenfold. Mo secreted large amounts of IL-1; there was no demonstrable IL-1 activity present in supernatants from cultures containing either T cells and Mx, or Mx alone. Similar results were obtained by preincubating the cells (Mo, Mx, and T cells) with Con A for 12 hr and removing Con A prior to a 36-hr coculture. We examined the possibility that a small amount of IL-1 may be able to support Con A-stimulated T-cell proliferation and yet may not induce thymocyte proliferation. The highest dilutions of Mo supernatant (1:125) which supported T-cell proliferation also caused a fivefold increase in thymocyte proliferation. Supernatants from Mx failed to stimulate thymocyte proliferation or support Con A-driven T-cell proliferation. However, Mo and Mx lysates contain Il-1 activity. We conclude that human Mx support Con A-induced T-cell proliferation in the absence of IL-1 secretion. Mx may support T-cell proliferation by cell-bound IL-1 or by a non-IL-1 mechanism. 相似文献

Six OKT4+ human T-cell lines that require continuing PHA stimulation and TCGF for continuous growth were established. The cells from all six of these T-cell lines became smaller in size and lost the cell surface Ia antigen when they were grown in phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-depleted growth factor. These cells were unable to survive in the absence of PHA even if exogenous factor was present in great abundance. One of the cell lines (FL) was capable of providing helper functions. In the presence of PHA and phorbol myristate acetate, FL cells produced a growth factor, tentatively identified as Interleukin 2 (IL-2) by its ability to promote the proliferation of an IL-2-dependent murine T-cell line. Moreover, when FL cells were cocultured with B cells, pokeweed mitogen-induced immunoglobulin production was enhanced. 相似文献

Is IL-2 regulated by a serum inhibitor? 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Normal murine serum inhibits the proliferation of cloned cytotoxic T lymphocytes driven by pure interleukin 2 (IL-2), indicating that a component of normal murine serum is directly inhibitory to IL-2-dependent proliferation. However, the effect is not specific to such cells, since an IL-2-independent variant cell, and a number of lymphoid tumor cell lines are similarly inhibited. Addition of purified IL-2 does not overcome the inhibition, although its degree is reduced. Fractionation of murine serum showed that there are at least two inhibitory activities, which migrate with globular proteins of molecular weights greater than or equal to 10(6) and 4 X 10(4), respectively, on gel chromatography. Neither of the activities was specific for IL-2-dependent cells. Furthermore, murine IL-2 is stable in murine serum in vitro, although it disappears rapidly from the circulation after intravenous injection. It is therefore unlikely that serum inhibitor of IL-2 is an important immunoregulator in vivo. 相似文献

In addition to the regulation of B lymphocyte growth and differentiation, the cytokine IL-4 (BSF-1) exerts effects on T lymphocytes and other bone marrow-derived lineages. We show here that recombinant mouse IL-4 synergizes with low levels of IL-2 to increase the yield of cytotoxic activity in a primary MLR, and the proliferation of both cloned IL-2-dependent CTL lines and cells obtained from a primary MLR. IL-4 did not induce the proliferation of any of several cloned CTL cell lines on its own. It also did not replace IL-2 in stimulating the growth or reactivation of quiescent, antigen-dependent CTL clones. However, IL-4 was synergistic with IL-2 after reactivation of the quiescent cells with antigen plus IL-2. Enhancement by IL-4 of the IL-2-driven proliferation of an antigen-independent line was blocked by the addition of anti-IL-4 monoclonal antibody. Although incubation of the CTL clones with IL-4 or with IL-2 plus IL-4 induced a transient increase in the expression of the mRNA encoding the 55 kDa IL-2 receptor, no change in the number or affinity of IL-2 receptors because of IL-4 was detected. This suggests that IL-4 does not potentiate the IL-2 response by altering IL-2 receptor levels. Instead, we propose that the synergistic effect of IL-4 is mediated by a different signalling mechanism from that used by IL-2. 相似文献

IL-2 modulation of murine T-cell oncogene expression 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

C-myb, a cellular oncogene associated with normal thymic development, was found to be highly expressed in four interleukin 2 (IL-2)-independent T-cell lines, but not in two of three IL-2-dependent T-cell lines. The IL-2-dependent lines, HT2 and CTLL-2, were found to have low levels of c-myb mRNA in the presence of IL-2. However, short-term IL-2 depletion resulted in at least fivefold increases in c-myb message. Add-back of IL-2 after 30 hr IL-2 depletion of CTLL-2 cells resulted in return to baseline low-level c-myb mRNA. Expression of the oncogenes myc, bas, raf, and abl as well as the T-cell genes Thy-1 and CT beta did not parallel that of c-myb. These studies indicate that removal of a growth factor can result in increased levels of a specific cellular oncogene and that two nuclear protooncogenes (c-myb and c-myc) are expressed differentially during cell growth. These results may help to explain aspects of intrathymic T-cell differentiation where there is very high c-myb expression in the face of limiting amounts of growth factors such as IL-2. 相似文献

An IL-4-dependent T cell clone (LD8) was isolated from the murine IL-2-dependent cytotoxic T cell line C30.1. This clone has lost the capacity to proliferate in response to IL-2 after long-term culture in IL-4. LD8 cells express the p70, but not the p55, subunit of the IL-2R on their cell surface. The number of p70 IL-2R molecules on LD8 cells is comparable with the number of high-affinity IL-2R on the parental C30.1 cell line. LD8 cells can efficiently internalize IL-2 through the p70 IL-2R subunit. Following stimulation by IL-2, LD8 cells up-regulate p70 IL-2R mRNA, but do not express p55 IL-2R mRNA. IL-2-dependent proliferation of LD8 cells was reconstituted after introduction and expression of a human p55 IL-2R cDNA. To further investigate the role of p70 IL-2R, we have measured IL-2-induced proliferation of C30.1 cells in the presence of three anti-p55 IL-2R mAb (5A2, PC61, and 7D4) that recognize different epitopes. Under the experimental conditions used, the combination of anti-p55 IL-2R mAb prevents the formation of high-affinity IL-2R, but does not affect the binding of IL-2 to p70 IL-2R or IL-2 internalization. However, these three mAb inhibit proliferation of C30.1 cells even in the presence of IL-2 concentrations sufficient to saturate p70 IL-2R. Together these results demonstrate that p70 IL-2R alone is not sufficient to transmit IL-2-induced growth signals and that formation of p55-p70 IL-2R complex is required for IL-2-dependent proliferation of murine T cells. 相似文献

An adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent growing cell line called CT-Mat was established by the long-term cultivation of an interleukin-2 (IL-2)-dependent human T-cell line, ILT-Mat, in the presence of cholera toxin instead of IL-2. CT-Mat cells can grow in the medium containing either cholera toxin or forskolin or cAMP derivatives. Although the CT-Mat cell line can still grow dependent on IL-2, the forskolin-induced growth of CT-Mat cells was demonstrated not to be mediated by an autocrine mechanism of IL-2 or any other growth factor. The intracellular cAMP level was elevated by treatment with the chemical agents but little by treatment with IL-2. These suggest that cAMP transduces intracellular growth signals different from those through the IL-2 receptor in an IL-2-dependent T-cell line CT-Mat. 相似文献

Human tetanus toxoid specific T-cell lines and clones capable of producing IL-2 were established. IL-2 production occurred only when the antigen-specific T cells were cultured with both tetanus toxoid antigen and an autologous, irradiated adherent cell population. The T-cell lines and clones remained strictly dependent on exogenous IL-2 for proliferation at all other times. Phenotypic characterization with monoclonal antibodies recognizing T-cell subsets revealed that the antigen-specific lines and clones bore predominantly OKT3 and OKT4 markers with essentially no OKT8 positive cells present. T-cell clones which were demonstrated to secrete IL-2 activity could also partially deplete media of IL-2 if cultured in the absence of soluble antigen and irradiated adherent cells. 相似文献

Peritoneal exudate lymphocytes (PEL) from immunized guinea pigs, when pulsed with antigen, rapidly release a T-cell stimulatory factor (TSF). TSF nonspecifically enhances the proliferation of purified guinea pig T cells in the presence of another signal such as PMA, PHA, or Con A. On a per cell basis, antigen-pulsed PEL produce about 14 times more activity than similarly stimulated lymph node lymphocytes.Several lines of evidence support the view that TSF is the guinea pig equivalent of TCGF (IL-2). TSF containing supernatants have IL-2 activity when assayed on the IL-2-dependent CT6 cell line. When TSF containing supernatants were absorbed with CT6 cells, there was a significant decrease of both TSF activity as assessed on guinea pig T cells as well as IL-2 activity as assessed by the CT6 assay. Additionally, partially purified human and mouse IL-2 have TSF activity, while the macrophage product, IL-1, has no TSF activity. After chromatography on a S-200 column, TSF activity and IL-2 activity coelute at an apparent molecular weight of 19,000. 相似文献

IL-2 is a principal autocrine growth factor that promotes T-cell activation and proliferation. However, IL-2 has also been implicated as a key intermediate in the induction and maintenance of self-tolerance in vivo. The purpose of this study was to assess whether the differential regulatory activity of IL-2 was related to the activation status of responder T cells. In cultures of rested myelin basic protein (MBP)-specific T cells, IL-2 not only induced IL-2R alpha but also augmented surface expression of several other activation-associated glycoproteins including OX40, LFA-1, B7.1, B7.2, TCR, and CD4. Pretreatment of T cells with IL-2 also up-regulated subsequent antigen reactivity in assays of MBP-stimulated proliferation and IL-2 production and also promoted proliferative responsiveness to IL-2. In cultures of activated T cells, however, IL-2 inhibited subsequent reactivity to antigen or IL-2 and thereby prolonged a phase of postactivational refractoriness. Exposure of preactivated T cells to IL-2 also inhibited subsequent responses to the mitogenic combination of PMA, ionomycin, and IL-2 without enhancing cell death. These data support the concept that the inhibitory activity of IL-2 is dependent upon the activation status of T cells and is manifest as impaired cell cycle progression in response to a variety of IL-2-dependent stimuli. 相似文献

The requirement for co-stimulatory molecules in T-cell stimulation by mitogens and superantigens in the absence of antigen-presenting cells (APC) was investigated. Phytohemagglutinin (PHA) induced interleukin (IL)-2 receptor (IL-2R) expression on purified T-cells, but proliferation occurred only when exogenous IL-2 was added. In contrast, the proliferative response to a pepsin-extracted type 5 M-protein from Streptococcus pyogenes (pep M5), a recently identified superantigen, required signals provided by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), IL-1 and IL-6. pep M5 alone did not induce IL-2R expression; however, when combined with PMA, IL-1 and IL-6, IL-2R was expressed. Differences were also observed in the response of the leukemic T-cell line, Jurkat, to PHA and pep M5. Soluble PHA, but not pep M5, induced IL-2 production by these cells in the presence of PMA. Cross-linking by its specific antibody or adsorption of pep M5 to microtiter plates was required to activate Jurkat cells. Both PHA and pep M5 induced Ca2+ mobilization in Jurkat cells; however, only PHA induced a rise in intracellular Ca2+ in purified T-cells, whereas pep M5 was unable to induce this activity unless IL-1, IL-6 and PMA were added. Our data provide biochemical evidence that mitogenic and superantigenic stimulation of T-cells is different. 相似文献

Relative roles of T-cell receptor ligands and interleukin-2 in driving T-cell proliferation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Stimulation of T cells by the T-cell receptor (TCR)/CD3 complex results in interleukin-2 (IL-2) synthesis and surface expression of the IL-2 receptor (IL-2R), which in turn drive T-cell proliferation. However, the significance of the requirement of IL-2 in driving T-cell proliferation, when TCR stimulation itself delivers potential mitogenic signals, is unclear. We show that blocking of IL-2 synthesis by Cyclosporin A (CsA) suppressed both the Concanavalin A (Con A)- and phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)/ionomycin-induced proliferation of T cells. The latter is also inhibited by anti-IL-2R. Kinetic studies showed that T-cell proliferation begins to become resistant to CsA inhibition by about 12 h and became largely resistant by 18 h of stimulation. PMA, the protein kinase C activator, enhanced Con A-induced T-cell proliferation if added only within first 12 h of stimulation, and not after that. Given the fact that, in the present study, TCR is downregulated within 2 h of Con A stimulation and T cells entered the S phase of cell cycle by about 18 h of stimulation, the above results suggest that TCR stimulation provides the initial trigger to the resting T cells, which allows the cells to traverse the first two third portions of G1 phase of cell cycle and become proliferation competent. IL-2 action begins afterward, delivering the actual proliferation signal(s), allowing the cells to traverse the rest of G1 phase and enter the S phase of the cell cycle. 相似文献
